No, I wouldn't fly an airbus 300 if I had any other choices
Yeah. All airbusses are crap, aren't they?
The newer ones are fly-by-wire, and the software won't allow pilot input to stall or over stress the airframe.
The older ones, however, will allow a ham-fisted (footed?) pilot to over stress the airframe.
Just like the Boeings that real men fly.
Errr...
